About A. DAVID CANDLE CO.

Hey there!! Thanks for visiting my shop! I am a small town girl from the Midwest. I am a wife & mama of 4 boys, 2DILs & 3 grandchildren! My Co. is named after my brother, Andy, who tragically lost his life at the age of 18. I wanted to honor him in some way so I decided to start pouring candles in the spare bedroom of our home. My very first thing that I used was Andys dresser! My goal was to gain enough knowledge to pour & give as gifts. It was then that I realized I had absolutely NO knowledge, so I started taking classes. I had NO idea that this is a real Science! I've learned there is a real learning curve to this! I've learned you cannot just pour wax, oil & a wick in a random jar and call it good. (so dangerous!) There are a lot of Math & ratios! There has been tears of frustration, tears of joy, throwing away, experimenting, testing, testing & more testing, but so very worth it!! I am very conscience to provide safe, clean & natural products to my customers!! I use Soy, Coconut & Apricot wax in my candles & melts. Our home actually burnt down due to a small candle that I had boughten. I now know exactly what was wrong with that candle. My hope is that my products will bring light & hope into peoples lives! God has blessed my business more than ever & I give ALL glory to HIM!! I like to remind myself... Be kind always, for everyone fights battles that sometimes we know nothing about. As Andy would say... Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10Read their story
